Hi Everyone!
So today’s workout is a tough one! I did high knees in between every exercise to keep my heart rate up, and the fat burn going throughout the workout. We had another guest in today’s video. Kaitlynn is starting out on her own fitness bender. She does a great job demonstrating some of the modifications for today’s workout.
So I wanted to talk about diet this week. As I said earlier a diet isn’t a thing you go on. It is just whatever you eat throughout the day. My food philosophy is eat healthy, and don’t make any foods “off limits.” If you completely deny yourself something it seems that you end up craving it anyway.
Personally, I find the more I work out the healthier I want to eat. When I don’t work out I crave sweets and coffee. Working out helps regulate your blood sugar as well as stimulating your entire body. The metabolism boost does more than just increase weight loss. It also energizes you.
Kaitlynn has a food blog with a lot of great recipes. If you’re interested check them out at: www.kateshomekitchen.blogspot.com
I will also be sharing more of what I eat, and some of my favorite healthy recipes. Are there any diet issues that you struggle with? As always enjoy the workout, and feel free to leave me some feedback!
